MasterChef has taken out the top spot in all key demographics overnight, drawing in an audience of 918,000 viewers.
Ten's tentpole reality cooking program is now into its finals week, as contestants ramp up to the series' grand finale, a week from today.
For the second Monday night in a row, the show knocked Nine's Australian Ninja Warrior out of the top spot in primetime.
Ninja dipped in the ratings overnight, drawing in 888,000 viewers, compared to Sunday night's episode, which drew in 939,000.
Sunday's remain the most popular evenings for the program, as it continues its uphill battle to grow its ratings back to a similar level as its debut season.
The ratings race in the primetime slot continues to heat up across the three major commercial networks, with Seven's House Rules trailing behind Ninja last night, with 829,000 viewers.
Over the last two nights, less than 100,000 viewers have separated the top primetime shows.
In the daily overnight main channel share battle, Nine came out on top of Seven on Monday night, taking a 20.9% share, compared to Seven's 18.4%.
Despite winning in primetime and generating strong ratings in the evening slot, with Have You Been Paying Attention, Ten came in third, with a 16.5% share.
As MasterChef draws to a close, all eye's will be on Ten's The Bachelor, which today announced its premiere date and sponsors, as well as its new 'pilot week' strategy.
The strategy has not come without its fair share of controversy, being slammed earlier this week for its all-male lineup, with Ten defending the decision and explaining its position on the matter to AdNews today.
Ten also aired its game show replacement for Family Fued, Pointless, overnight, drawing in an audience of 493,000.
The premiere was a significant increase when compared to Family Fued's series finale, which only managed 213,000.
The show is hosted by comedian Mark Humphries, best known for his work on SBS program, The Feed, and TV personality Dr Andrew Rochford.
